Further shares, or selling

Buying more shares in your home

As a shared owner with Lifestone you have the option to buy further shares of your home until you own 100%, but this may be subject to the terms of your lease. Buying further shares is known as ‘staircasing’. You can purchase further shares from a minimum of 10% and your rent will be reduced to reflect the share you own.

The rules for selling your home are set out in your lease. If you are a shared owner looking to sell you must call us to find out the options available to you. Contact our Sales team on Residentialsales@lifestone.co.uk or 0300 303 1010.

Selling shares in your home

We provide signposting advice options for those in financial difficulty but do not provide the option for shared owners to downward staircase or sell part of their home back to Lifestone.

100% leaseholder

If you are a 100% leaseholder and not a shared owner, please contact the Homeownership Team at HomeownershipSouth@Lifestone.co.uk or 0300 303 1010.
